like a critiquing what that thing is.
There's a point, hey, have you thought about it from like a different, you know, it's like, no, this is what we're doing.
Yeah, she made that Nazarite vow.
Why do you think the Bible talks... Because, I mean, it talks about it a pretty decent bit at the beginning of 1 Samuel, but like Eli's sons and talking about how wicked they were and kind of honing in on that.
Why do you think the Bible... Because obviously there's a bunch of sons from priests and people in the Bible that are never mentioned, but with Hophni and Phinehas, I don't know why y'all thought maybe... They're single.
Hophni and Phinehas were going to be next and like oh they're getting set up as the next prophets but then they get killed and God's already got a plan to raise up someone new yeah because I thought it was cool because when the Dr. Jackson was talking about you know the literature part of it when he's when uh when it's getting reported to Eli about what happened I can't remember what the very first thing he said was but then it's um you know we were routed against the um the Philistines
He was honing in on the order of which this was relayed to Eli.
It was something, I can't remember what the first one was, but then we were routed, and then it was your sons have been killed, and then it was, oh, and the art of the covenant has been stolen.
But he was talking about that from like a, because I just would have just read that as,
just the thing, but he was talking about the literary tools and how, you know, it ended with the thing that was most important to Eli and those things.
I thought that was cool.
Um, but yeah, that was a crazy, and then he just falls over and dies.
It's kind of like, it said he was old and heavy.
Yeah, for sure.
And I think most confrontations too, you know, at least for me and even like, you know, with Phil talking to you when you're 16, I think confrontation laced with
The humility and the transparency of, hey, I see where you're going.
I've been in that position before.
Yeah, that's good.
And I think for me, when I was going down that path, I had people telling me not to do it, not to do it, rather than, hey, don't do this because I've been in your position.
This is where it led me.
